Nothing has been heard of her since she passed through the Golden Gate, In command of Captain Medena, and her owner has telegraphed from San Salvador to the agent here to know what has become of her. The Maule has not been to San Diego, and the ocean seems to have swallowed her up, leaving not a trace behind. For a time it was thought the vessel might have encountered the log raft, but the big derelict was safe at Port Harford when the Maule left San Francisco. There has been no heavy weather on the southern coast, so the @isappearance of the steamer is a mys- tery. She came here from Acajutla, via San Diego, making the run in four- teen days. El Triunfo is only about 800 miles further south than Acajutla, nd the Maule is now out thirty-four days. The Maule's cargo was valued at $6755 and was composed of 1450 barrels of flour; 100 cases of dynamite; 704 cases of coal oil; 10 packages of paint and 1 package of arms and ammuni- tion.

The Eastman Kodak Company bhas started a rate war on this coast to force the smaller and to compel some of the larger Eai ern manufacturers to enter into a trust. The company has sought in more ways than one to gain absolute control of the trade. From time to time it has ab- sorbed smaller concerns that threatened o become competitors for the business of | the amateurs. Some of the concerns re- fused to be absorbed and grew on apsce 1l thelr proportions began to worry man people. ago pre ns were made to these In- stitutions to enter into a combine.

The dry plate pro has given | them considerable uneasiness. They have but have been unable to shut off all opposi- tion. The war Is inaugurated on coast for the reason that Pacific Coast amateurs have the reputation among the manufacturers of using the better qual- ity and a higher price o of any other part of the United States. The war will not affect the larger deal- ers who make a specialty of several linas of amateur photographlc supplies, but there are more than 400 small dealers who have been selling the goods of the oppo- sition to the Eastman Company whichr ¢ the latter wins out in the war that was started yesterday morning, will be forced out of business. This 1s the first time in the history of amateur photography that a cut in_ the prices of the materfal used has been dreamed of. The Eastman Company has had such a monopoly of the business thut on many occasions where dealers have cut prices their supply has been cut off entirely and they have been compelled to retire from that branch of trade. “Press the button” machines are down to bedrock prices on the coast since yesterday, but when the figures go up the dealers assert that all the losses o war will be made good and a great deal more. CURBING A MONSTROUS EVIL. Alfred P. Black’s Ability and Up- rightness Deserves Recognition by All Good People. San Francisco has long been cursed by ghouls {n human form, who, preying on the fear of inexperienced women, have placed them In deadly peril by their wicked acts. Some of these malefactors were women, and among the number was Mrs. Dora Fuhrig, who was finallv ar- rested on a charge of murder. The pross- cution of this woman under the law was assigned to Alfred P. Black, then, as now, Assistant District Attorney. Against ali the force of mawkish sympathy and fulse sentiment Mr. Black contended syccess- fully and secured a conviction of Mrs, Fuhrig, in consequence of which she was sentenced to the State prison for a term of years. She has taken an appeal, but the excellent work of Mr. Black has al- ready borne fruit In the curbing of an evil that hitherto was rampant In this community. Mr. Black is the Republican nominee for District Attorney. He de- serves and ought to receive the hearty support of all good citizens. He has ex- perience, abfiity and integrity. —_———— AMERICAN SOLDIERS IN THE PHILIPPINES The uniform and army fund of Com- pany C, League of the Cross Cadets, was materially increased by the benefit enter- tainment held in Metropolitan Temple excellent gramme was greatly enjoyed: ¥ro: Introductory, Captein Phil L.

AR The steamer Queen sailed for Puget Sound yesterday with 365 of the Wash- ington volunteers aboard. There was an immense crowd down to see the steamer off and three hearty cheers for the soldier boys were given as the Queen moved away from the wharf.

C, and it was Intimated by the gentlemen who submitted his name that the professor would take pleasure in at- tending.

The indications are that the meeting of the Interstate Commerce Commission in | St. Louls on the 13th inst. will be largely attended. It is belleved that the St. Louis hearing will be only preliminary and that the sessions will not extend over three or four days. The reason for this is that the interests of the coast are so large that more time is needed for preparation than has been afforded in the Interval between the fillng of the suit by the St. Louis obbers and the date set for the hearing. | 2P0t also be asked, so that the bacifls Coast may have ample opportunity to get in all the facts, that further testimony shall be taken upon the coast, either by a member of the commission delegatea for that duty or by the entire commission.
